We (my kids 7 & 10) and myself spent a wonderful day at DC yesterday. I noticed a few things I wanted to mention on here especially to newbies.
1. The park officially opens @ 9. You can start checking in abs early as 7:15. We arrived @ 8 and the line was wrapped around the corner outside. I guess you should try even earlier if you don't be want the hold up.
2. We have been one other time so knew where we wanted to sit and put our stuff down. I also brought our own towels so the kids knew exactly where our spot was.
3. Here is the clincher. We were gone for a few hrs in the lazy river. We came back and someone had decided to take one of our chairs, it had my beach bag and towel layed out. They moved the bag and threw the towel on the ground. I was pretty upset that someon would be so rude to do that. Our chairs were on an end so it was easy enough to do I guess. This was the first of a few rude things i noticed.
4. My daughter (7)!was showering off her feet. An older gentleman came up and kinda pushed her out of the way and got in the shower with her (there were empty showers next to hers) I pushed in myself, gave her her shoes and gave him a dirty look. He was oblivious. People please wait your turn ..
5. At the end of the day throw alway your cups and plastic bags , return your wetsuits, snorkles, masks and towels. There are return bins, trash cans everywhere. It was a disgusting shocking mess at the end of the day. Most guests left their stuff including garbage littered all over the place. I do not remember that from before. I wish I took a picture. A lifeguard came over and made a point to thank us for cleaning up our stuff.
DIscovery Cove is a dreamy magical place and I hope everyone enjoys it as much as us.
